You are going to be working about 12 feet high on a scaffold deck. What should you be using to protect yourself from a fall? * This field is required.

Keep your body braced and use three points of contact when climbing.

No need for guard rails if you have a harness and lanyard. Use tie-off.

Read the scaffold tag. You may need to use both guard rails and a harness and lanyard to provide the needed protection.

9

You need to access a scaffold. The scaffold looks safe and has a tag that shows the scaffold was inspected yesterday. Is the scaffold ready for your use?* This field is required.

Yes. The scaffold was inspected recently and seems safe so use it.

Ask your team members to help you check out the scaffold. Use it if it looks OK.

Stop. You can not use the scaffold unless inspected and tagged by the competent person every day prior to use.

10

As you begin work on the scaffold you notice a plank missing on the work deck. Is this a problem? * This field is required.

Yes this is a problem. Stop using the scaffold and have it inspected. Special precautions are required for scaffolds with incomplete decks.

No this is not a problem. After noting the missing plank use personal fall protection to address the fall hazard.

No this is not a problem. As long as the scaffold has perimeter guard rails then planks missing should not be an issue.

11

You notice the scaffold you will be using is very tall. The width is only 4 feet but it is probably 30 feet tall. What do you need to keep in mind? * This field is required.

The taller the scaffold is the more stable it becomes as the scaffold weight is increased.

Tip-over can occur in scaffolds that exceed 4 to 1 in height. Verify the scaffold has been tied into stable surrounding structure.

As the scaffold because taller use personal fall protection to address stability issues

12

You need to access a scaffold that has no visible ladder attached. The structure of the scaffold has rungs and cross braces that could easily be climbed. What now?* This field is required.

Get help. All scaffolds must be designed to include safe access stairs/ladder. Most scaffold components are not designed for safe climbing.

If the components will bear your wight, then climbing those will be safe with proper tie-off.

Use the cross braces only for climbing. These allow easy access to all work decks.
